I ask this question very seriously! I am not trying to make anyone feel bad or am I saying anything about their parenting, I am truly curious about this...
I cannot help but notice that a lot of posts are geared toward how to be a SAHM when you don't want to be. I am not speaking about the moms who come here with the occasional doubt because I know that is natural but I see these posts all the time, and not just on this board. Are their truly so many moms who do not like being at home...or is it just that these are a "safe" place to have a rant?
I am not saying I do not have bad days...because I do. But I have to say that 90 percent of the time I LOVE being at home. I truly enjoy my kids. I like sharing breakfast with them, playing outside with them, teaching them especially since we homeschool, even taking them to the grocery store most of the time. I really feel no need to "get away" from my kids.
When I feel like I have had enough or that I need

Thanks everyone for the great reply's.
I was truly beginning to wonder...
I know this is a great place to rant and rave...heck I do it! But it is nice that sometimes we talk about typical everyday things,and what fun it can be to be a Mom!

Like you, I don't consider myself to be very patient either. Having a 6-month-old sure is trying on my patience. I want to be a gentle loving mom, I am wondering how you deal with your impatience when you just wan to pull your hair out?
